The Fine Line

The Fine Line

A Poem by Octavious
"

The fine line of successful and blind.

"
The fine line is a rare thing to see,
it learns to hide directly in front of our insane humanity.
But once you know what it is you'll always be able to spot it, 
and it will be hard to realize that you can't stop it,
it  a constant shadow hovering buy their side, whispering in their ears leading them to die . . . 
lonely,miserable,as a failure through all of our eyes,and theirs. 
Our world has only three options of living. 
1. Lead the world
2. Follow the world
or
3. Move against the world.
only a quarter of our world choose to move against t=our world, 
and only an eighth of that manages to end up leading the world in a result.
WE all ask why, but I ma here to give you the answer,
it's because they could see that fine line.
Moving against our blinding society, isn't a bad thing
it's a difficult thing, it is what leads us all into either our success or our failure.
That's because when we do such things there are to groups, separated by such a fine line, 
that many can realize that there is more than one group.
Group one: The Hollows.
A group that sees nothing but good,
but still moves against reality, and uses their voices to recruit more to their project.
They have goals but no plans,
members, but friends,
an idea, but no support,
an dream, but no final destination. 
These are the people that say what they hear without have the words to replace what thy have taken away.
"WE need not educations!" they say
"Our percentage of IQ should not divide us into groups of the smart and the average." they say 
"Follow your dreams and you'll find a way they say" they say.
All of the hollows are so cunning, that they manage to fool themselves,and will die never suspecting a thing, 
and on their death beds, they'll wonder what had went wrong.
Because their success didn't fall into their hands,
because they were rejected,
because bad things happened, 
because they could see that  FINE LINE.
Group two: The Wholes
They have inspiration,but they also have the experience,
the experience of thinking beyond what they want.
they acknowledge the good and the bad.
the say out to us all.
"You can be successful, without this education,without this life - but it will be the hardest thing that you will ever do"
That is a whole.
"Don't look and compare yourself to the successful who denied the world of what it wanted from them, they are successful because of their own battles,and you must make your own to lose and conquer and become stronger as you continue to climb to your success."
That is a whole.
A whole is a leader who know that people will leave because they don't want to do the work,because they want fast results,
A whole choose quality over quantity,
A whole will tell you the truth of the pain that is to come,
A whole,can see the fine line.
The fine line between themselves and a hollow.
You can be successful, but you need to know the truth, and accept it.
You're only human,and your going to fall harder and harder until you start to bounce back up.
But now you can see the fine line, 
so this is the question.
Are you a Whole, or a Hollow?
Are you willing to do what it takes to stand on that stage of success?

The fine lines of life we dance upon. If we are lucky. We will find the right direction. We hope. Few people are whole. Hard to be complete in a world with little control and purpose. Thank you for sharing the excellent poetry and thoughts.
